[Advocates for the homeless] worry that cities will buy bare-bones, cheaper models, place them in remote parts of town, and criminalize those who refuse to go. [Tiny homes] may provide cities with the legal authority to then clear out an

They are awful. IIRC if it has three dots, it's for accessibility only - you don't need to press it. If it has the vague hand symbol, it will probably light up when you "tap" it, but may not actually do anything you noti

No it's not. Maybe if you're talking about a contest , but if you're talking about straight up exchanging cash for the jet like the kid tried, it's obviously a joke. Even by your logic: Do you also think there was onl

It's the same violation of law but it doesn't quite look like the same kind of fraud. What's illegal is co-mingling funds; but you can co-mingle funds and do at least baseline proper accounting to make sure you're not to

These numbers didn't ring true at all to me, even for spinning disks. And indeed, I don't think the documentation presents them with correct context - I can't figure out what's "per disk". > A total of 3.45%

The RTO discussions for us in Germany (30m train commute in/to a city center) definitely begin with a very different tone than my friends in the US (60m car to an office park with a sandwich shop across the street) seem to have.

One side-effect of the WFH period for us (and I assume a number of other EU companies) is that once we went WFH, we also went remote; previously we had two offices and everyone worked in one of those two cities and today we have (IIRC) five

Tools don't need to be safe, though; you need to be safe from them. IANAA, but two tethers on your toolbag sounds like a great way to accidentally fuck up the two tethers on yourself.

It's hard to have more failsafes on a single toolbag than "don't let go". The mission was successful (or it seems, partially successful, not due to loss of toolbag); losing the toolbag is the "one thing" that c
